A Sommelier is actually a job that can't really be conferred by a course. You have to work on a restaurant floor to actually become/be a sommelier. BUT our course will definitely give you the tools and understanding you need to become a competent sommelier. So, if you were to take our course and work in the wine side of the restaurant business then you would definitely be a sommelier. An example is our Master of Wine, Christine Marsiglio. She is not a sommelier as she’s never worked on a restaurant floor and so wouldn’t legitimately call herself a sommelier. However, she is a wine expert, and has the knowledge, but less so the practical skills required to be a sommelier. There's always a practical component involved in being a sommelier, which is normally conferred through working in a restaurant.

French Wine 201
Excellent course! Really improved my overall knowledge of French wines and the explanation and presentation of wines. Although I’m still trying to finish the course, it’s super worth your time. Love “decoding” wines to my customers who are just getting into French wines. A fantastic way to learn. Loving this course.
My frenchy review
It's a great course with a most knowledgeable instructor. I'm hoping that someday you will offer a comparable course on the Wines of Spain.
French Wine 201
France remains the standard, the most complex, and the most varied wine country in the world…which makes it a little overwhelming. If you want an accessible; fun; and, comprehensive way to learn about the wonders of French wine, I highly recommend this course.
